Great review as always steve, I genuinely have started to enjoy your B-roll shots recently (they were always great but look even better nowadays), they make the watch look even better somehow, I might just pull the trigger on this piece as my first ever mechanical watch now that you've provided some insight. It's going to be my first mechanical watch so I was going to have a bit of fun with it thats why i liked the LHD, lovely colorway too
the original Rolex Sprite GMT is on oystersteel right? Jubilee looks better but people will notice immediately that it is a homage if you wear it on a Jubilee bracelet
@@EscapeWheel Just trying to help!? I havent seen it on the jubilee tho!? Which i really like...i have the 2 tone Parnis Root Beer on jubilee which i absolutely LOVE❤️😎⌚️✌️
yeah, they are pretty hit and miss. I've had like 6 or 7 of them, and they have all been fine but never used them for more than a couple years. generally, I think they are fine. but there's always the chance you get a lemon. REALLY hoping pagani updates these to the NH34...that would be awesome
First of all, that intro was very nicely done mate. As for the watch, I like the colourway and that is about all really. GMT's aren't my favourite, but I do hope they make a non-gmt right hand drive in this colour. Also that movement is a little questionable too. Still got work to do on the lume front too. Nicely work.
Ditto - great intro. I have the watch and think it's fun, frills, and if you genuinely wear watches on RH (I do a lot of the time) then it's kind of functional also. I can't imagine this will be the last homage in this style. PD have at least set the bar for others to surpass.
Surely one of the main selling points is that it is fitted on the right hand so easily usable for a lefthanded person. So, why fit it the wrong way round.
True. But I couldn't get used to it on the HR. And having it on the left gets the crown away from digging into the wrist. More comfortable for sure. I'm so used to RH watches that I found it really tough to use it as a LH watch (especially manipulating the crown)
@@EscapeWheel Thank you for your response! I found out about this color on Invicta and bought it because I really wanted it! Personally, it was good that the split pin was comfortable. There seems to be a special flat-blade screwdriver, but there is a rumor that it is big, so should I prepare a precision screwdriver separately?
For me, it's the feel. Easy way to tell us to pull the crown to the time setting position. Rotate the crown clockwise and the time should move forward. If the time moves back it's the DG/Pearl
@@EscapeWheel Ok Thank you! I thought it was stamped somewhere. I just ordered one on eBay and want to know which kind it has when it arrives. Love your video!
Pagani, "once on the nail and once on the horseshoe" we say here. They look to be stepping up and then crumble again... Thanks for the review Steve, colourway looks nice indeed, ain't sure i need a "destro" watch though. Cheers mate, be well.
This is just an old model revamped with some color and confusion...it's not a surprise that it's not as nice as some of their newer pieces. Thanks for watching, as always, Stavros.
Hi!. I swapped out my stock oyster bracelet with a leather strap and now I'm having trouble rettaching it again. The shock bars can't get into thr lug holes no matter how much I try. Most I get is one side in, another side is off by a very small amount. Do u have any tips? Thanks. I have the exact same sprite as you but mine is with oyster.
A problem with most Pagani watches, unfortunately. You just have to keep trying. Use the springbar tool to press on the tip (no depress into the springbar, but to force it over into the hole) Some people use fishing line or floss to loop it around the bar and pull it I to place but this hasn't ever worked for me. Good luck!
I used to think I would be a submariner/gmt guy for life…but the more I crawl down the rabbit hole the more they bore me. I think it’s the flat case and their inability to look good with anything but metal bracelets, (my opinion.) thanks as always for the review.
Got an early version of the Pepsi one and I think they ruined it when they changed the case and the crown. A Can't unsee the huge crown 😆The insert looks awesome though
Everything is good but nothing is good 😂 Honestly I will never buy another PD because of that many flaws. I got only one and braclet is pain in the ass and one of the endecies just fell off. I can't bother to send them watch back. And that sharp clasp omg I cut my friend so bad with it once.
Left Hand watches just look upside down to me at first glance, and just WRONG once I look closer. BURN THEM WITH FIRE!..... .....ahem, I dont like them.
lol, fair enough. ive had a fare share of these movements, and as long as I don't try and remove the stem from the watch, they have been absolutely fine for me...but I've heard stories.
You’re a legend for showcasing so many different style & colored straps.
not only it is very nice, but also looks cool and different. Love that green.
Yeah, that green is awesome indeed.
Congrats. You are on the verge of 6k subscribers. Must be nice after all your trials and tribulations 👏👏🇿🇦
thanks!, just hit 6K this morning! woo hoo! and yes, it feels great!

thanks man. this isn't a bad one to "cut your teeth on" as they say. have fun with it! love the colorway!
The rubber strap and nato look fantastic, great review
Thank you 🤜🤛
I'm probably never going to buy a Pagani watch but I sure do seem to watch a lot of reviews of them. Odd.
lol. they've got some good ones.
No one cares 🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾we will
Isn’t it supposed to be worn on the right hand?
Hello, awesome video. I would like to know where you got the black silicone strap with a clasp that you put on the watch. Thanks a lot! 6:05
See the "curved rubber" linked in the description.
@@EscapeWheel Sorry, the page you requested can not be found
the original Rolex Sprite GMT is on oystersteel right? Jubilee looks better but people will notice immediately that it is a homage if you wear it on a Jubilee bracelet
Who cares? All that matters is you’re enjoying the watch
If you care buy an actual Rolex and wear something else like a Seiko diver or just a super clone if you don't have 10k+ of disposable income.
Imagine caring people noticing lol
love the review bud
Great review! Maybe I missed it but is the bezel insert aluminum (painted) or ceramic (carved)?
The bezel in this color is ceramic. Pepsi and coke still use Aluminum.
Great video. Great review. PD should use your into to sell this watch. It is award winning!!!
haha, thanks!
Link of the last green strap pls
Love the green but hope they make a "righty" one as well
agreed
Parnis makes this watch in these colors in a standard version😎⌚️✌️
@@QualityTimeWatches yes, I've seen that, and I actually like the Parnis GMT's. They are solid
@@EscapeWheel Just trying to help!? I havent seen it on the jubilee tho!? Which i really like...i have the 2 tone Parnis Root Beer on jubilee which i absolutely LOVE❤️😎⌚️✌️
Great Review, keep it up man 🎉🎉
Thanks, man. Will do! 👍
I'm tempted towards one of these but I've heard of reliability issues with the Pearl movement.
yeah, they are pretty hit and miss. I've had like 6 or 7 of them, and they have all been fine but never used them for more than a couple years. generally, I think they are fine. but there's always the chance you get a lemon. REALLY hoping pagani updates these to the NH34...that would be awesome
I hope PD starts using the new NH34 movement in there GMTs in the near future.
They already are! I think they lost them as v4 now. s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DF3esKf
@@EscapeWheel nice. Thanks
Hi, is tge gmt on this watch working well?
First of all, that intro was very nicely done mate. As for the watch, I like the colourway and that is about all really. GMT's aren't my favourite, but I do hope they make a non-gmt right hand drive in this colour. Also that movement is a little questionable too. Still got work to do on the lume front too. Nicely work.
Haha, yeah, I'd be down for an NH35 based RH model.
Ditto - great intro. I have the watch and think it's fun, frills, and if you genuinely wear watches on RH (I do a lot of the time) then it's kind of functional also. I can't imagine this will be the last homage in this style. PD have at least set the bar for others to surpass.
Dumb.
Why the crown is in the left side
@@Mr.alhejji it's called a destro watch or Left hand watch..they are meant to be worn on the right wrist.
Your videos are the best
Thanks, man. That means a lot 🤜🤛
它會在24點變換日期或是在18點的時候變換日期?
Beautiful watch and video thank you 👍🤩
Thanks for watching
I want to buy it

Great quality video
👌👌👌
@@cmr9928 thank you 🤜🤛
What a beauty.. 😍😍😍
I do like those colors
Bracelets are packed in frames.
C-ring? Screw type?
Is it split pin?
Screw pins. Very small screws
@@EscapeWheel
Thank you for your response!
I found out about this color on Invicta and bought it because I really wanted it!
Personally, it was good that the split pin was comfortable.
There seems to be a special flat-blade screwdriver, but there is a rumor that it is big, so should I prepare a precision screwdriver separately?
@@SBDC177 yes, I would. 1.5mm maybe.... Not close to the watch for another couple days so I can't measure
割りピンがよかった、、
thx
I only have 1.6, I have to buy it, I wish I could have a split pin type or a C-ring instead of being bad at it.
How can you tell what movement your particular Pagani Design the PD1662 has?
For me, it's the feel. Easy way to tell us to pull the crown to the time setting position. Rotate the crown clockwise and the time should move forward. If the time moves back it's the DG/Pearl
@@EscapeWheel Ok Thank you! I thought it was stamped somewhere. I just ordered one on eBay and want to know which kind it has when it arrives. Love your video!
@@1972myc thanks! Enjoy the watch!
@@1972myc forgot this has a display caseback. Just look at the movement. NH34 will have it (very faintly) stamped on the rotor
@@EscapeWheel Thank you, you have been very helpful!

Definitely 2 big drawbacks to them. But they are just so timeless looking. I can't help myself sometimes
Yeah i get where you’re coming from but the design is just iconic and timeless
I've been fooled by the position of the crown the first time. I put it on my wrist the wrong way. 😂
I got thr szme watch and very hot works good on time
Got an early version of the Pepsi one and I think they ruined it when they changed the case and the crown. A
Can't unsee the huge crown 😆The insert looks awesome though
yeah, what's the deal with the oversized crown...unnecessarily long.
❤❤❤❤
I thought it was upside down
how I felt the entire time I had the watch :)
I just couldn't get used to it.
Everything is good but nothing is good 😂 Honestly I will never buy another PD because of that many flaws. I got only one and braclet is pain in the ass and one of the endecies just fell off. I can't bother to send them watch back. And that sharp clasp omg I cut my friend so bad with it once.
they've got to do something about the clasp...cut my daughter once picking her up.
Left Hand watches just look upside down to me at first glance, and just WRONG once I look closer.
BURN THEM WITH FIRE!.....
.....ahem, I dont like them.
I'd say it comes across you don't like left hand watches...me neither! 🤣🤣😍
definitly hard to get used to...but after a couple of days it seems fine...but yeah, i grabbed this a few times and put it on up-side-down.
I hope you got some new gloves haha. Buy black microfiber gloves!
Lol, I just gave up on gloves. 🤷
Why are you wearing gloves with a £69 Pagani watch? Seems a bit ridiculous
@@andrewb2475 because I hate fingerprints. I also don't use them anymore.
@@EscapeWheel .............ahh I hadn't thought of fingerprints!👍
Acutely this watch suits for muslim, bcz we wear the watch on our right hand! Rolex maybe targeting this model for middle East customer's!
Interesting. Do you mind me asking why?
hmm, interesting indeed.
左手で食事するからだっけ？
Lefties make sense to me
Oh no, this one's not for me! Don't like the original. Frankly these movements are rubbish. So even if this was really well made I wouldn't like it! 😆
lol, fair enough. ive had a fare share of these movements, and as long as I don't try and remove the stem from the watch, they have been absolutely fine for me...but I've heard stories.
Free means it’s not a real review. Pay for it yourself, or everything you say is biased. Also, Pagani is junk.
did you even watch it? i trashed the bezel and the lume and the clasp. say what you will, but my reviews are honest.
@@EscapeWheel I bought it, and everything you mentioned I what I thought, perfect review.
@@zimankhan7411 thank you so much. I try to be as honest as possible, even being a little unfair considering the prices of these things.
Japanese know the wayyyyyy I'm buying 12 of these watches
